{{RecipeIngredients
| 1 long loaf of [[Bread|bread]], [[Sliced on the diagonal|sliced on the diagonal]], 15 mm thick
| [[Olive oil]]

}}

===[[Mise en place]]===
* Preheat the [[Oven|oven]] to 190° C (375° F - gas 5)
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| [[Brush]] the [[Olive oil|olive oil]] on each [[Bread|bread]] slice on one side only, making sure that you use enough [[Oil|oil]] to coat them properly.
| Arrange, side by side on a shallow [[baking tray]] and [[Bake|bake]] for 6 minutes.
| Turn the tray round in the [[Oven|oven]] and [[Bake|bake]] for a further 6 minutes.
| Allow to cool.
}}
===Serving suggestions===
Serve rubbed with [[Garlic|garlic]] or melt some [[Cheese|cheese]] on top of them. [[Ham]] and [[Tomato|tomato]] are also used as toppings. If your tostas are smallish, then you can make various [[Tapas|tapas]] by, for example, taking a slice of [[Tortilla|tortilla]] and an [[Olive|olive]], and skewering them to a tosta with a [[cocktail stick]].
===Variations===
You can use [[Garlic|garlic]]-infused [[Olive oil|olive oil]] if you wish.
===Chef's notes===
The length and width of your loaf will determine the number and size of the slices. The [[Bread|bread]] in the image above was a normal [[French loaf]] - for bigger slices, you will need something rather wider. Tostas will keep in an airtight container such as a [[Lock&Lock boxes|Lock&Lock bowl]]. I tried making these with ciabatta, but the resulting tostas turned our so hard that I almost broke my teeth on them, so stick to something with a similar texture to a [[French loaf]].
